The fact that this absolutely gorgeous book by Lori Emerson landed at my doorstep over here in Switzerland today is entirely due to the Fediverse, where I got to follow her musings while she was writing it a bit. So excited to dive in.
A book lying on a wooden table. It is titled "Other Networks. a Radical Technology Sourcebook". A plant, some yarn and some eurorack patch cables have also joined the party on the table.

All set up.
A mostly wooden room with a high ceiling. Art installations, one of which is a weaving in green and black, another one is a screen showing a forest. Black boxes to the right.

You know what?
I do not want to continue this ongoing experiment on what happens to a city culturally and socially when it is flooded by lots of venture capital from California.

It is crazy what you can get up to with Docker these days. My own Overleaf is actually working...
Overleaf interface with text reading "Look at this, I am using my own Overleaf instance!"
